You're always at your best
Always so unafraid
For you it's effortless
It's just the way you're made
And I'm exactly not like you in every way
I don't matter and that's exactly why I need you

Could it be that you and me
Are always meant to be together
Promise me you'll let me be
The one, the best of your arch enemies
Pretending you're a friend of me
Say that we'll be nemeses

I'll be a brilliant man
I'll go to great expense
Devising a master plan
You'll make me make sense
Before I found you there was no one to destroy
Now that you're here I don't seem so crazy do I?

Could it be that you and me
Are always meant to be together
Promise me you'll let me be
The one, the best of your arch enemies
Pretending you're a friend of me
Say that we'll be nemeses

Ah yes, my old friend
You are a master of this game
I'm here to play and you pretend
That you don't even know my name
Well played

Sometimes it's hard to tell
If you even notice me
Maybe it's just as well
It's better you don't see
The way I'm running just to keep your back in view
In your shadow waiting for the perfect moment

Could it be that you and me
Are always meant to be together
Promise me you'll let me be
The one, the best of your arch enemies
Pretending you're a friend of me
Say that we'll be nemeses


∗ JoCo didn't remember this line when performed in both Northampton (7/22) and Somerville (7/23) MA - these are the only two performances of Nemeses to date.
